If your 9-month-old child has greenish nasal secretions, you can try a technique to help reduce the amount of mucus dripping from the nose to the throat. This involves using a syringe (without a needle) and saline or distilled water. The amount of water to use may vary depending on your child's age. Initially, you may need to use this technique about 5 times a day, then you can decrease to 2 times a day. Most parents notice a significant improvement in symptoms within 48 hours. It is recommended to consult a doctor if the child starts to have a fever.
